A clean geometric sans with smooth, near-monoline strokes and generously rounded curves. Uppercase forms are simple and well-proportioned, with wide circular bowls (O, Q) and a straightforward, low-contrast construction throughout. The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, open apertures, and compact joins that keep counters clear at text sizes. Terminals are mostly straight-cut, and the overall rhythm is even, with tidy spacing and consistent stroke behavior across letters and numerals.
This font works well for interface text, product UI, and web design where clarity and a neutral tone are important. Its geometric construction and open counters also suit brand systems, packaging, and wayfinding or signage that benefits from clean forms and consistent rhythm. In editorial layouts, it can serve as a modern sans for headlines and short-to-medium reading lengths.
The tone is modern and approachable, combining geometric precision with soft, rounded shapes. It feels neutral and efficient without becoming cold, making it suitable for contemporary, everyday communication. The friendly lowercase and open counters add an inviting, readable character.
The design appears intended as a versatile geometric sans optimized for clarity and broad usability. By pairing simple uppercase construction with a friendly, highly legible lowercase, it aims to perform reliably in both display settings and everyday text while maintaining a contemporary visual identity.
Distinctive details include the single-storey a and g, a circular, open e, and a Q with a short diagonal tail. Numerals are clean and geometric, with rounded 0 and 8 and a simple, upright 1, reinforcing the font’s straightforward, utilitarian feel.
